Actors of color are speaking out about the lack of diversity in this year’s Academy Awards nominees, and while many can agree that things have to change on the Academy’s end, some actors of color are calling out their own as well.
Mo’Nique is an Oscar winner, and while she understands diversity is a huge issue in the film industry, she also feels like some people of color in higher positions aren’t helping usher in progress.
In a recent interview, she explains what went down to cause her to become disappointed in Tyler Perry.
Click next for the details.
Girl bye.
Is she really still talking about this?
Of course. She’s never going to stop talking about it.
Never.
She makes good points but people will ignore that just to bash her smdh.
Who’s bashing her?
People are afraid to go against the powers to be. That’s life. That’s why you have to stand with the people who have to courage to do so.
Sigh…
Mo needs to let it go. Precious happened seven years ago.
I’m seeing now why she was blacklisted. She puts people on blast LOL.
You can tell Mo’Nique was really hurt about this situation because it’s all she talks about when she’s not talking about her open marriage.
I wish she would shut the f-ck up about this sh-t.
Honestly , she has viable points . Hollywood is way more sinister , twisted ,and oppressive than us outsiders know . Look how people knew Charlie Sheen had Aids and didn’t warn the women for their own safety.. I also remember when that whole Chris Stolks molestation allegations came to light..It really hurt my heart to know what those boys had to go through for fame. Chris Stolks has been blackballed , but that’s not enough! Marques Houston was certainly a participant , he was said to be one of victims . Ironically , he became the victimizer . Ras B may be crazy , but I’m a lie detector , he was not lying . Quinton Trevor was done so badly , he said he was bleeding when Marques was penetrating him but Chris told him to keep going . Then , do you ladies remember that little latino looking one from immature? His mom snatched him out the group for salacious activities..Chris only molested the ones whose parents weren’t around , Quinton said it began when his mom went back to Texas . Chris told them that if they wanted fame , there’s a huge price to pay.I remember Quinton being so depressed when he sang Everybody’s Free and Dove Cry behind the scenes . He confessed in church about this and said that he told that dark skin girl from SWV and she told Chris , Chris packed his stuff and kicked him out . He had to get back to Houston from California .His wife knew that he was molesting those boys , she only divorced him once he got blackballed . Smdh ,Chris then told the record lable that Quinton’s voice wasn’t good anymore and he was forgetting his lyrics , LIES .His album had been completed but Chris wouldn’t release it and told him is career was over . He kicked Ras B out too and Chris his cousin! INCEST allegedly ran rampant through their family . Marques is still around but his career is over too . Karrueche was DESPERATE to have filmed with Marques and Chris Stolks..Nasty rapists .QuintonTrevor still has a power house voice , he sings gospel now .Sadly ladies , this type of scandalous abuse is the norm in Hollyweird . Research it , it’s disgusting and sad what these people do to achieve fame , but it’s much worse when Executives and Managers abuse these people , it’s an inside thing , they all mostly know the deal . Fame kills people that aren’t built for it and don’t have the proper backing and loyalty .:-[

Monique was asked to promote her film like every other is asked to promote their film.The studio pays for airfare,hotel and per diem.
I agree with you on this Ras B stuff. I believe bc what mad would go through the ridicule of being called gay and crazy for shedding light on this situation. Abuse does some crazy things to mentally and physically f you up. Also i remember when BET used to do the behind the scenes making of the videos and it was one with Marcus Houston and Chris Stokes was directing and one of the video models was being asked all kinds of questions by Chris Stokes and he was just ridiculing her and by ridiculing her; I mean demeaning her. He has the look of a rapist. I never liked him since then and then when Raz B came out with those allegations it made since. And when B2K broke up and the boys called in to speak; Raz B, JBoog, and Fizz; I remember Boog saying it was like being raped. I believe he meant to say they were raped for real. Either way sometimes you have to go against the grain (in my August Alsina voice) and speak up on things and push for change. It might take years, but at least there will be progress.
Didn’t mean to post that essay twice , shiid
Tyler was just trying to protect his own a-s.
